Transparency in Practice: Explore Our Certificates, Policies and Accreditations

hibiscus plc accreditations and certificates and policies

At Hibiscus-Plc, quality, compliance and environmental responsibility are central to how we operate. We also believe that our customers, suppliers and partners should be able to see the standards we work to and understand the commitments behind them.

That is why we have brought our key policies, certifications, accreditations and supporting statements together on our website, where they can be viewed or downloaded in one convenient place.

Making Important Information Easy to Access

Our Policies & Certifications page provides clear access to documents covering several important areas of our business, including:

  • Our Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation statement
  • Our EcoVadis rating
  • Environmental, quality and governance policies
  • ISO 9001 quality management certification
  • ISO 14001 environmental management certification
  • SafeContractor accreditation
  • BPIF certificates
  • DGSA certificates
  • Our sustainability plan

Together, these documents demonstrate our approach to quality management, environmental improvement, workplace standards, responsible governance and regulatory awareness.

Our PPWR Statement

One of the latest documents available on the page is our statement on the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, commonly known as PPWR.

PPWR introduces requirements for packaging placed on the EU market, including provisions relating to recyclability, recycled content, packaging minimisation, labelling, restricted substances and supporting documentation.

As a supplier of labels, hazard communication products, label printing systems, software, training and consultancy services, it is important that we clearly explain our role within the packaging supply chain. Our PPWR statement outlines the responsibilities of Hibiscus Plc in placing finished packaging onto the EU market. It also explains the product and supply-chain information that may be available to support customers with their own regulatory reviews.

Rather than making broad or unsupported claims, the statement provides a transparent overview of our position and identifies where product-specific information may be issued for relevant Hibiscus label materials and product ranges.

Our EcoVadis Rating

Our EcoVadis scorecard is also available to view through the page.

EcoVadis assesses organisations across four key sustainability themes: environment, labour and human rights, ethics, and sustainable procurement. Hibiscus Holdings Plc achieved an overall score of 59 out of 100, placing the business in the 55th percentile, and received the EcoVadis Committed Badge.

The assessment gives us an independent view of our current sustainability management practices. It also helps us identify where progress has been made and where further improvement can be achieved.

For us, sustainability is not a one-off exercise. It is an ongoing process involving the development of stronger policies, measurable actions, responsible purchasing practices and continued assessment of our environmental and social impact.

Supporting Informed Supplier Decisions

We recognise that supplier assurance is increasingly important. Organisations need confidence that their suppliers understand relevant standards, maintain effective management systems and can provide appropriate supporting information when required.

By making our documents readily available, we aim to make due-diligence and supplier-review processes simpler. Whether you are reviewing our quality systems, environmental commitments, health and safety accreditation, sustainability performance or approach to PPWR, the information can be accessed from one central location.

Our certificates and policies reflect the work taking place across Hibiscus Plc to maintain high standards and continually improve our operations. They also support our commitment to working with customers and partners who share our focus on quality, responsibility and sustainable progress.
